    Anyone have experience with this chair? The price is great and I like the design. Not sure about ergonomics and durability though.

    I have a similar chair that I got from Tesco in the UK, and its really comfortable and sturdy.

    The prices reflect the 5 Billion dollars in R&D each year by Microsoft.

    Better than 2 but I cant see why they cant do 4..

    Please Apple, wirelessly update everything (iTunes, iPhotos etc). It is long overdue. Plugging my iPhone into my MacBook make absolutely little sense.

    I think you're choosing to miss my point.
    No, I see what you're saying, I just disagree with it...
    Whether Halo had only 4 people, 3 of them would be @$$hats
    ...and this is where you are wrong, in my opinion. But eh, whatever. You're free to whatever opinion you want, and free to play with whoever you want. I'll stick to playing with friends and good players, and having a great time while I do.

    --------------------

    Bungie released some more details about the Matchmaking changes that are coming tomorrow. They are updating and adjusting some of the playlists and map loadouts after observing these last few weeks of play. Here is what they say is coming....


    Team Slayer
    SWAT is taking one in the face (being removed) and the weighting for all other gametypes will be adjusted to fall in line with voting data. Expect � surprise, surprise � more traditional Slayer offerings to appear.

    Team SWAT
    SWAT gametypes that are removed from other playlists are being incorporated into their own, unique playlist with adjustments made to modes and maps based on voting data (farewell SWAT on Hemorrhage, you sucked and everybody hated you).

    Team Objective
    Powerhouse will now feature several more gametypes, including 1 Flag and Stockpile. Because Powerhouse is awesome and we don�t get to play it enough.

    Multi Team
    Rocket Race is being added. You win by staying on the Mongoose and racing to the checkpoints. (Oh, who am I kidding, you�re just going to hop off and try to assassinate people, aren�t you?)

    Big Team Battle
    SWAT and Classic are being removed and the frequency of Snipers is being reduced based on � you guessed it � voting data.

    Arena Doubles
    Boardwalk and �Pro� options are both being removed. Default Zealot is being replaced with Arena Zealot, a map variant which features modified initial player spawns and a soft-kill zone in spaaaaaace.

    Team Arena
    �Pro� options are being removed. Arena Zealot (details above), is being added.

    Score Attack
    Credit earn rates for Gruntpocalypse are being reduced to fall more in line with other modes.

    General Matchmaking
    Alongside the major alterations listed above, a myriad of much needed fixes and tweaks to the experience will also go into effect on Tuesday, including a metric ton of small, but annoying bugs and gameplay issues that we�ve identified and earmarked for eradication. As these updates go live, Jeremiah will publish the full details to our Optimatch forum so you can pore over the subtle nuances of each individual change.

    I'm pretty happy with the changes, more or less. I wish Team Snipers would get its own playlist, like it had in Halo 3, so it could be removed entirely from the standard Team Slayer and Big Team playlists. I'm also happy that they've said the Scorpion is being swapped for a Wraith on Hemorrhage, so that is good as well, as the Tank would more often than not, just end up ruining the game. But I'm SUPER happy that Rocket Race is coming back!! YES!!! I'm going to be playing a ton of that, just as I did with Halo 3. :D

    All software has bugs. It's a matter of prioritizing new features vs. bug fixes when one puts out new releases. For many (maybe even most) features or bug fixes you wanted, chances are he had thought of them and prioritized them rationally. I wouldn't burn him at the stake for not implementing something you wanted sooner. :)

    I am in the same boat and don't know what to do....

    I am just going to wait, I know if I get an iphone 4 now then in 4-6 months the iphone 5 comes out I will be kicking myself. Its just like I couldnt wait a few months for the 3gs when I got the iphone 3g. I was kicking myself.

    Looks like a new battery for me too! Sadly I can't get onto the support page for the recall. Looks like all 1.8 millions users want to make their exchange at the same time!:D

    I'm leaving my battery in in the mean time though. I really can't manage to use my powerbook as a desktop for the 4 weeks or more that it'll take to get the new battery. It's worked fine for the past 1.5 years so I don't see why it should suddenly now self destruct!

    Corvus, glad to hear you, your wife and the cats are ok. I'm sure it must have been terrifying.

    Glad your MBP survived too!

    It's a joke, why is it racist? It's satirical, meant to highlight the lack of positive role models, that's why I used Aunt Jemima, the pancake lady, and Uncle Ben, he of the famous rice producing dynasty.

    If that offended you you need to grow a bladder.
    You don't understand how that could come off as racist? The many successful black role models around today simply don't exist in your world view somehow?

    Does this update my iPad to an iPad 2?

    The reason the iPad's file size is so large (593MB) is because it has to install a camera on the top of the iPad, and if you go into the Settings> General> Bezel, you can now change it from Black to White (or vise versa) whenever you want.

    This is an awesome update, hurry, download it.

    P.S.
    No onions.

    Each Sunday I'm going to try to take a wide angle shot of some of the more interesting rooms in my church. The main building was an old mansion with some pretty interesting architecture. Some of the rooms have murals along the tops of the walls. This one is the basement which was a summer parlor and decorated as an English tavern. Those are beer drinking carvings on either side. The floor is Venetian tile.

    An Imac.

    With a mobile CPU and GPU. Like I said, what do you buy if you want desktop performance (ie:2.4+Ghz C2D, 4 RAM slots, real GPU, 2+HDD bays)?

    The only option is a Mac Pro.

    Odd. 8GB nano and 30GB video iPod = same price. I guess you really pay for "small"!

    there goes some of sony's good brand quality image.

    one the good side. I once had to swap out a battery from apple before.

    it was quick and easy. honestly i am a power user, travel tons.

    could use a new fresh pair of batteries anyway. i am checking to see if any of my 3 are swapable.

    hey not a bad thing. this is preventative. my batteries have been fine, aside from losing life after tons of charges.

    @SVD thanks. I wasnt too keen on some of my earlier stuff either. I knew how I wanted to express myself but didn't know my camera well enough to. It's good to know my stuff is appreciated, thanks for the compliment. I only have the xs, 24-70L, and the speedlight. I do have studio strobes and backdrops and stuff but thats it.

    Why is this on the front page? It's like saying that WalMart is now selling a junk tablet. Except this article says that Toys R Us and Best Buy is now selling iPads. This isn't front page news.

    Yes it is read again.:p

    Hi...do you think this upgrade will solve the ramdon MB crash problems? Or do you think, as someone told me yesterday, that this problems might be already be solved?

    They were solved already with the last firmware update...and we're gonna have new MBs until next Tuesday, I am pretty sure.
